I'd have to agree with those saying the fluff matches up with the stats about as well as it ever did, with the occasional oddity.
I don't consider any race that gets at least one stat bonus useful to their class to be suboptimal. I mean, lets look at Dwarf Fighter vs Dwarf Shaman.
Dwarf Fighter--no bonus to strength, but Con and Wis are both important secondary stats for fighters, especially those that use hammers and axes. Second Wind as a minor action and forced movement resistance are both highly useful for defenders, as is Dwarven Weapon training and various other racial feats that emphasize toughness and melee.
Dwarf Shaman, gets a bonus to both primary stats (Bear Shaman) but the Shaman is a ranged support character who avoids getting "stuck in" whenever possible, making most of the dwarven racial traits and feats situational at best.
Advantage Dwarf Fighter, imo. A simple +1 attack/damage is not always superior to the full range of racial abilities, feats, and paragon classes.
You could say much the same about Tieflings and Warlocks. Even without the Con bonus, I'd rather roll up a Tiefling Infernal Warlock over, say, a Half-Elf anyday. Hellfire Blood largely negates the lack of con bonus, Int bonus boosts main secondary stat along with AC, and charisma bonus rounds out the 3rd most important stat. Throw in stuff like fire resistance, infernal wrath, and the +1 bonus vs bloodied enemies vs the Half-elves dilente ability, group diplomacy, and team work feats, and the Tiefling comes out way ahead.
